Spoilt Brats
Mr Newton sighs, "ever known anyone so spoilt you would love to strangle? I lived with a Paris Hilton-a-like who complained about everything, stomped her feet and whinged till she got her way. There was a happy ending though: she had to drop out of uni due to becoming pregnant after a one night stand..."
Who's the spoiltest person you've met? Has karma come to bite them yet? Or did you in fact end up strangling them? Uncle B3ta (and the serious crimes squad) wants to know.

Janet - Old-Age Brat Extraordinare!
My step-father currently employs his ex-wife to 'work' part-time at his shop.
He does this purely because he believes his also very bratty son will sulk if he sacks her (he's another story).
She turns up when she pleases, insisting on being chauffered to & from the office by members of staff.
Once at work her daily routine involves playing solitaire for the majority of the day, taking a well-deserved break in order to smoke, be rude to the customers & slag off all other members of staff, including my step-father.
She is unashamedly rude to people's faces, then whinges she is being bullied if anyone says anything back.
She had a pop at one of the staff last week, because he's in a spot of bother & may lose his license: 'that means you won't be able to work here no more then, if you can't even get yourself to work!' Then threw a hissy fit when she was told in return that she could start getting the fucking bus.
There's currently a big sign by the back (shared) computer that says 'JANETS DESK NO UNAUTHORISED USE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!' (lack of apostrophe her choice, not mine). This was placed there after someone else had the nerve to be using it, when she had a hard day's soltaire playing to do.
Getting off her fat arse to sign for parcels the postman brings is also a major hardship, as is making a cup of tea. Apparently, she is 'not the fucking secretary'. Which is news to us, seeing as that's her job title.
Although she was busted the other day sending a shitty letter to a client, listing herself as 'Managing Director'. Most days, I'm surprised she can manage to direct herself to the shitter & back without damaging her braincell.
Her over-protectiveness of the biscuit tin is fast becoming legendary. Dare to eat a biscuit & she will start to bitch about how everyone is always nicking 'her' biscuits. Despite the fact they are paid for out of the petty cash tin for the business.
She purposefully tries to cause arguments for her own entertainment by spreading vast quanities of bullshit. This has made her universally hated by the enitre staff, who have made frequent complaints, but cannot get rid of her due to her 'unsackable' status. Even though she's way past retirement age. And claiming full unemployment benefits, naturally...

That's just what I was going to suggest.
I think you can do it anonymously as well, so if they bust her, your step-father will never know that it was you!

as others have said, phone the benefits fraud hotline
failing that, make a complete cunt of her by screaming in her face, in front of the entire staff, how utterly worthless and pathetic she is as an employee. speak to the other staff and arrange a walkout, then you can tell your stepfather that, either he fires her or he hires a whole new staff.

Yup,
what they said ^^
Shop the thief to the Benefits Agency, or organise a walkout. Either is good, photos would be fab!

Just asking.

Ditto!!!
Please please please PLEASE call the benefit hot line!!!
Especially in this day and age when our taxes are already being pissed all over the smoldering wreckage of the collapsed capital system, and will be further stretched by a imminently stretching dole queue. (Naively) I want my taxes to go to people who are genuinely hard up, not greedy lazy twunts like the lady you just described.
Call the benefits line and please tell us what happens next!

Alternatively,
if you're not that bothered about your anonymity on here, you could let us all know where the shop is and we could go and cause hell. It would be a pleasure...
